In the hectic daily life, spending our leisure time outdoor in the mountains becomes more and more popular. Although information describing dental injuries in various sports is available, data specifically on dental trauma and other dental problems in alpine sports are lacking. Data of 1,128 alpinists were generated by using a standardized questionnaire. The questions focused on the frequency of head and dental injuries and other dental problems. The participating alpinists have been recruited through the network of alpine clubs and an outdoor equipment supplier. Injuries were most frequently caused by a fall while doing alpine sports (14.7%, = 154). Of the participants, 8.2% (n = 93) suffered from a facial injury: 16% (n = 15) of these had a dental trauma. Other dental problems such as barodontalgia were more common than dental traumas. A sensation of pressure or pain was noticed in 13% (n = 135) of the participants at least once. Of all the participants who suffered pain, 54.1% reported one or several previous restorations. Pain medication was beneficial in 92.1%. Dental traumas are rare while doing alpine sports but not negligible because of its requirement of lifelong therapy and incurs substantial treatment costs. An intraoral pain of a usually asymptomatic tissue occurred, in this sample of participants, nearly as often as in pilots and divers. Pain killer is an efficient tool for the alpinists to reduce the pain until they reach a lower altitude.
在忙碌的日常生活中，在山区户外度过休闲时光变得越来越受欢迎。尽管有关于各种运动中牙齿损伤的信息，但缺乏关于高山运动中牙齿创伤和其他牙齿问题的具体数据。通过使用标准化问卷收集了1128名登山者的数据。问题集中在头部和牙齿损伤以及其他牙齿问题的发生频率上。参与的登山者是通过高山俱乐部网络和一家户外装备供应商招募的。受伤最常见的原因是进行高山运动时摔倒（14.7%，n = 154）。在参与者中，8.2%（n = 93）遭受面部损伤：其中16%（n = 15）有牙齿创伤。诸如航空牙痛等其他牙齿问题比牙齿创伤更常见。13%（n = 135）的参与者至少有一次感觉到压力或疼痛。在所有感到疼痛的参与者中，54.1%报告有过一次或多次先前的修复治疗。92.1%的人使用止痛药物有效。进行高山运动时牙齿创伤很少见，但由于需要终身治疗且治疗成本高昂，所以不可忽视。在这个参与者样本中，通常无症状组织的口腔内疼痛发生率与飞行员和潜水员的情况几乎一样。止痛药是登山者减轻疼痛直到到达较低海拔高度的有效工具。
